2012 - I had Vertical Sleeve Gastric Surgery in October 2012, and this is my journey to push the fat girl aside and start living life without fear of lawn chairs, the middle seat, clothing shops and high heels. Among other things.

2017 - I'm preop for the Duodenal Switch procedure for my sleeve to help me get to goal weight....and to fix another hiatal hernia.

2014 in review!

Well, it's been an interesting year. I wouldn't classify it as particularly successful in the weight loss department, but I've been building in some areas and just ignoring others.

December:

Year long:

Working out:

I've been keeping to my weekly weights, which is good. Getting stronger and my abs and arms are showing some real muscle progress.

Work:

This year brought some work changes. I accepted a new position at my current company. A promotion, new department and an amazing opportunity. I will start the transition to the new job in early feb.

I wouldn't say my boss is very happy to see me go, but -long story short- if you are not going to fulfill your promises about this job then I will find another.

School:

The other great opportunity that is being provided to me is that with this current position I will also be going back to school to finish my BBA. Yay!!!!!!!

Forward progress:

Time to get off the "snack" horse and start tracking my food and water again. I want to make some better weight progress in the next year. 15-20lbs.

Getting down to 220 in 2015...or maybe it should be 215 in 2015! Ha!!

Either way, getting my planning back on track is going to be the key for this year, it's going to be a busy one!

About Me

I had a Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (and Hiatal Hernia repair) in October 2012. It is already one of the best decisions that I've ever made in regards to my weight problems. It was also one of the hardest. My highest weight ever was 315lbs. This blog is to keep track of all the changes so that I can appreciate them after the fact, and to help keep me on track. Thank you for reading.
